Actually this should be my Sept hit...
not buying anything until whatever I have runs out

but then again, I just sold some Nexxus products and used the money to try Elucence

 

[mightyisis6874]

THANKS! I'm glad somebody's paying attention!

Do you happen to know the ingriedients for the SE Luxury Conditioner? TIA

 

[Blkbeautyhair]

Because it's so early here is the list of what I'm trying this month in hopes of them being a hit:

TRYING

• Pantene Pro-V Intense Moisturizing Mask
• Kenra Moisturising Shampoo. I love the clarifying poo so much that I thought I would give it a try
• Mizani H20 Nighttime treatment

I'll be back on the 30th with the final verdict.

 

[IrisDaVirus]

ANOTHER HIT (I'm talking MAJOR hit):

Herbal Essences Hello Hydration conditioner - WHOA! This stuff is totally the bomb! I've been doing cw's with it for the past three days and it's been great to my hair. I might try the Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Curls & Waves conditioner to see if there's a difference between the two. I don't think I'll ever give up my beloved Tresemme' Vitamin E Moisture Rich, but I can sure see myself using the Hello Hydration and the Tresemme for cw's.

 

[myco]

Hit:

Sunsilk 24/7 creme on the ends of my hair before rollersets. My hair is so soft and smooth, but still weightless. I would equate this to the effect that I used to get from using Salerm. But this is cheaper and easier to get my hands on.

 

[mahogany66]

Shunta, You are so right!!! That is what is keeping me from running out to get the Herbal Essenes Hello Hydration and Deutex! (sp) lol.

I need to stay out the stores and off line buying things! But I think 3 of the products I listed are some I have and never tried. They were just sitting here in my own personal Beauty Supply Store in my closet!

But that Aussie Knot Forgotten.......Is the truth against Tangles.

 

[B_Phlyy]

Hit

Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisturizing Leave-In Treatment

 

[Britt]

Big ole misss.....

Fiberguard Sustenance Treatment

 

[Vshanell]

Big hit for me.....

Oyin's Burnt Sugar Pomade- I really love this. It's like a hair grease w/o the bad stuff and my hair is so moisturized, strong and the shine is amazing.

Miss.....

Ion soft bonnet hair dryer- I was under there almost 2 hours and my hair was no where near dry.

 

[Cichelle]

I haven't posted any hits or misses in a long time because I don't try new products much anymore. But this month:

MISS:

Qhemet Biologics Amla and Olive Heavy Cream

I know everyone raves about this, but it just did not work for me. It's too heavy and oily for my hair, I guess.

I love the pomade- it smells really good to me too.

 

[Vshanell]

I love the pomade- it smells really good to me too.

Yes, it's the bomb. Do you think this product alone would serve as a daily moisturizer or should it be used to seal? I'm kind of confused about this since it's a pomade made of mostly oils. I've been using it daily as a moisturizer so far and it is working very well.

Duo Tex. It might work better for me once I get a spray bottle for it.

 

[Wishin4BSL]

Hits:

Have but haven't tried:
Rusk Moist treatment

1. Affirm 5 in 1 reconstructor
2. Star's Lacio Lacio on dry hair and for rollersets made my hair fluffy and soft
3. Mesh Rollers for rollersetting- made rollersetting so much easier for me
4. Duo-Tex in a spray bottle makes a world of difference- this is a great mild protein treatment.

Honestly-I would view it as a sealant & for shine because from what I have read in other threads, a moisturizer has water as one of the ingredients. I'm a little confused about it myself. However-if it is working for you for daily moisturizing, then there are no problems. When I think of moisturizer-some type of cream comes to mind like Qhemet's Heavy creme-etc. I still love the pomade-even mixed with a little water I can see how it may add moisture.
